Florence Food Round Two
Trattoria 13 Gobbi Recommendation Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Address: Via del Porcellana, 9R "The menu here offers a lot of flexibility. You can make requests to the waitstaff, and it's clear they have a lot of confidence in their chef. They'll try to accommodate dishes not on the menu if you ask. However, the service can sometimes be a bit indifferent, probably because they get so many customers and don't focus too much on this. 😠" 0️⃣ Antipasto/Starters - Mozzarella con Prosciutto (Buffalo Mozzarella and Ham) : This dish isn't on the menu, but we asked the waiter for this combination, and they brought it to us. You can also request your favorite combinations. - Fiori di Zucca Fritti (Fried Zucchini Flowers) : Highly recommended!!! This dish is listed under "Contorni" (side dishes). 1️⃣ Primo/First Course - I Nostri Rigatoni : The texture is similar to Ragù, the classic tomato pasta sauce, but their version is more flavorful and layered. The pasta itself is great, and pairing it with Parmigiano cheese is amazing! This is their most popular pasta dish, and almost every table orders it. - Chitarroni Pasta with Oil, Garlic, Spicy and Bacon : This pasta features a garlicky flavor with bacon. If you don't like too much garlic, you can ask them to use less. It won't leave a strong garlic taste, and the addition of parsley balances it out nicely. 2️⃣ Secondo/Second Course - Roast Beef di Scottona with Roasted Potatoes : The beef is decent but not as impressive as the Pastella. It's still good, and I recommend medium-rare! 💕 Dolci/Dessert Please, do try their signature Cheesecake!! It's the best cheesecake I've ever had. It's not greasy at all and completely different from the usual cheesecakes. It has a slight ice cream texture and goes perfectly with raspberries! Also, their Prosecco is worth a try. It has a lovely pink color and, in my opinion, a slightly higher alcohol content than the Prosecco in other restaurants, but it's still very enjoyable. ❣️ A small tip for dinner: Girls, be mindful of the candles on the table! Watch your hair (a friend's hair accidentally caught fire). The indoor tables are quite close together and not very large, but the atmosphere is still quite nice. #ItalianLife #Florence #Food
